HDFC Bank freezes TMC account amid party control dispute, denies allegation

Former West Bengal sports minister Aroop Biswas requested HDFC Bank to freeze the Trinamool Congress account, citing a dispute over party control after his removal as treasurer. The bank reportedly placed a debit freeze on the account, which holds Rs 535 crore.

The party has disputed the claim about the account being frozen. The development comes amid internal tension within the party regarding leadership and financial control.
